Can someone please help me!!! I need to know when it would be appropriate for an ortho surgeon to bill for an inpatient discharge. For instance when we admit someone for surgery I have not been billing for discharge as I was told we should not. But what if pt comes in through emergency room my dr is called by the er dr regarding the pt and he says to admit. My dr sees the pt. pt is inhouse a couple of days. My doc wants to charge admitt, 2 daily visits and discharge. Is that correct??? If someone can direct me to where I could find some info regarding billing for discharge i would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks
